SPEAKEASY COCKTAIL - An twist on the Sazerac

If Sazerac is your favorite drink and if you want to try something in the same line , this is "THE COCKTAIL": SPEAKEASY .

This recipe is a twist on Sazerac adapted by the italian bartender Oscar Quagliarini from the Juleps New York bar in Milan . The cocktail Speakyeasy was soo good that I decided to make as well with some arrengements since we didn't have the bitters from the original recipe . Instead we used Bob's bitters . The result was awesome .

It is surprising how Ardbeg macthes well with all the ohters ingredients . We have the right amount of smokiness , the after taste is quite aromatic with the presence of chocolat , absinthe and the sweetness of Vanila .

SPEAKEASY

first rinse an old fashioned glass with absinthe ( we used Artemisia Capricieuse 72) , then pour it out .
